Hauling permit fees will increase in January 2013. There will be fees associated
will all types of permits. The formatting of the actual permit will change to give
customers more flexibility with annual or multi-trip permits resulting in fewer
permits needed. For more information, refer to the Permit Equity Study.

When is a hauling permit required?

If your vehicle configuration is reduced to its smallest dimensions possible and
still exceeds the maximum
legal limitations, you must obtain a hauling permit prior to traveling
over Virginia's highways.

DMV offers an Automated Routing Solution (ARS) for approving and issuing hauling
permits. ARS will reduce the permit issuance turnaround time and provide you with
the ability to submit hauling permit applications electronically, self-issue certain
types of hauling permits and receive most hauling permits in one day or less.

To get started, Logon using your VAHPS ID, User ID and

If the emergency occurs after normal business hours please contact the VDOT Emergency
Operations Center at 1-800-367-7623.
